    Hello, I have a supervisor password locked bios that I tried patching it following steps at this thread, but after I write the patched rom to the chip and boot, the bios beeps 4 + 4 times and I get no display, rewriting the original rom back makes it POST but I'm immediately asked for password.

    Any idea what's the issue or if y'all can try to patch the attached rom it would be greatly appreciated.

    Today, I tried the unlocked bios provided in this thread, after removing CMOS battery i get black screen and it powers back off and doesn't auto-restart. Original dump still gets to password prompt for sanity check.

          Need BIOS for HP Pavilion 15-n058sr recovery - Caps Lock blinking twice
          by sssssssssssssss
          Hello everyone,

          I'm dealing with a classic BIOS corruption issue on an HP Pavilion 15-n058sr and hoping someone here might have the original BIOS file or point me in the right direction.

          Symptoms:
          • Laptop powers on but no display at all (completely black screen)
          • Caps Lock blinks twice with a pause, then repeats continuously
          • F12 LED stays on permanently
          • No POST, no boot sequence, nothing on screen

          Based on HP diagnostic codes, the 2-blink Caps Lock pattern indicates BIOS corruption/failure.

          What I've tried:
          • Hardware reset (battery removal, power

          Elitedesk 800 G6 SFF Bios Password Lock XM25QH128A (3.3v) - Am I doing this right?
          by BrentH561
          Hello everyone, I am looking for help to make sure I am on the right track to remove lost BIOS Admin password on an HP EliteDesk G6 800 SFF. I recently purchased this on ebay and the seller is willing to accept a return but I have already installed my new HDs, NVME, and setup proxmox so I would like to keep it.

          Here is the hardware identification specs:
